Things I've collected over the years or acquired on mixtapes and comps or gathered from the internet or the library or my parents' attic. I make no claims to "discovering" or "owning" anything. Probably neither do you. It's whatever I feel like playing that week. Things that may or may not be familiar. Who knows? The time's next to each song in case you don't like something or it's icky or if you don't want your kids to hear it. Past weeks here too. Just type "Magic Whistle Radio Hour" in the search engine. Here's the pertinent information:

Much of the material here is at least a generation old and therefore sometimes has racist and sexist standards we wouldn't conform to today. I can't do a line-item veto. Think of it like a friend you like hanging out with 95% of the time but once in a while they embarrass you. Don't let offense at one song cloud your impression of the curation as a whole.
